Hrm, perhaps. One interesting question: if it's commercial code, it's
proprietary, right? And so how exactly is said developer using BK's
commercial code if it's not available to him? If he has signed a NDA,
that's a different issue, of course.
IANAL, but that sounds a tad like libel or slander or something similar.
Perhaps pistols at 30 paces? ;-)
